I hope the new Chrysler Airflow will have a front end that looks similar to the original one. If it does it will be a good looking car. It does appear the end of the sedan. A lot of people we know are like us, they have an SUV and a pickup. The only car we have now is a 1951 Chevrolet Fleetline.
Today is check your fluid levels day.
A delayed victory for the station wagon. People finally bought into “form follows function”, realizing an additional 10-20 cubic feet of accessible cargo space and seating for 7-8 are better than a trunk. But where are kidnappers and mobsters going to stuff their victims?
Good story. Note that Hyundai and Kia continue to sell cars year after year. GM is supposed to go all EV in the future I don’t see that being a success.
I drive a Honda Accord V6. It’s a fast luxury four-door, but the carriage sits low to the pavement. I must always be aware of certain terrain. My next purchase will be a mid-size pick up. I guess one could say I am following the trend.
as some one who worked for ford 45 years my favorite car was crown vic as i knew which rear gear to order to get max gas milage which was in high 20’s for a car that size and weight. over the years i owned 7 of them. my currant ride is an f-150 v6 turbo. there again as i knew i would not be pulling anything i went a higher rear gear and get into 20’s fuel milage.
most people that buy a truck will buy what ever is on lot not knowing what gear is back there and so might get bad gas milage for a truck that might have been ordered to pull a big boat or trailer.in all my years if a customer came in looking for a truck my first question was what are you going to pull and what are putting in back. i have turned customers down and sent on there way as i knew truck was not going to do what they wanted. i had rather them be mad at chevy dealer them me.
